It’s been a long while since I posted a skincare review. That’s because I believe this category of products requires more time before getting your thoughts straight on a product unless that first use turned into a total failure.

I’m a huge fan of natural mud masks for their healing and cleansing properties, though I’ve only tried the Moroccan one so far. Nevertheless, I finally got the chance to try the dead sea one from a company called Petra.

This dead sea mud mask comes in a sturdy huge sized tub with a very generous amount of 550g of product. As for the mask itself, it is 100% natural, rich in minerals, salts and other powerful substances. It truly does wonders to the skin and let me be frank; this one exceeded by far my expectations… It is smooth & soft in texture and has a typical smell of natural mud. It is also SLS and paraben free…. I’m really in love.

The powerful blend of ingredients the mask has, not only leaves my skin baby soft but also super moist. The dead sea mud is great in absorbing the excess oils & impurities, giving the skin an instant radiance and freshness. It also helps massively in fighting off blackheads around my nose and in addition to that, it removes impurities deep within my “not-so-large” pores to shrink them and reveal a bright skin beneath.

I’ve only applied this mask on my face so far and I can’t have enough. It is worth every single penny. I can even say that it’s a pure “fountain of youth”. If you guys have difficulty maintaining a glowing complexion, I absolutely recommend grabbing the Petra Dead Sea Mud Mask.

Laura Mercier is a brand that has been raved about over and over, specifically their cult classic powders that I had under my radar for quite some time.

I eventually picked the Secret Brightening Powder, and just like most of powders I tried, it turned my under-eye cakey when I first used it, which was quite frustrating in light of all the praise that shadowed this tiny pot. I then presumed that it’s another over hyped product,
still, I didn’t let go that quick. Three weeks back, I decided to give it another go, not sure why but I did and I’m glad I did, using a damp sponge this time instead of a powder brush and that was the winner card that got me completely hooked on this game.

I usually tend to stay away from loose powders because of their messiness. However, this cute little pot contains the finest & most efficient powder that could ever exist for a flawless, luminous & brightening effect. Truly as described, the Laura Mercia Secret Brightening Powder is lighter than air that doesn’t crease or settle into the fine lines. Instead, it boosts the concealer effect & reflects the micronized pigments for an instant eye lift.

Yes, a loose powder wasn’t a part of my routine, and despite the high price tag, I’m being totally smitten with the lightweight, formula and effect of the Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder that now, has a permanent spot in my stash.
